As filed

Compared to last Monday feeder steers sold 1.00 to 3.00 lower. Feeder heifers sold steady to 2.00 lower. There was moderate to good demand for feeder classes. However extremely hot temperatures restricted the movement of feeder cattle today. Slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 higher on a light test. No test of slaughter bulls. There was moderate demand for slaughter classes.
